Through entrepreneurial education, the goal of the Art/Work programs is to provide all people with the knowledge and tools necessary to create robust art commerce. This is achieved through a variety of educational formats, including workshops, seminars, salons, roundtables, visitations and interactive experiences.

Art/Work Connections – business knowledge for artists [Past Event Photos] [Upcoming Events]
* These seminars create a support network for artists by bringing them together with experienced business leaders, arts professionals and educators who share their knowledge regarding the entrepreneurial aspects of art as a business.
* As emerging artists become knowledgeable in such topics as contract negotiation, copyright law, financial planning, marketing, social media, fundraising, and art sales, Miami becomes known for its art/work infrastructure that supports a sustainable art ecosystem.
* Seminars are held at galleries and other art spaces to provide host-partners with exposure and allow gallerists and artists to connect.
